The Federal government’s power has vastly increased over the history of the Republic. To what degree do enumerated powers and the Tenth Amendment still limit the power of Congress? Could each chamber of Congress create a Committee on the Tenth Amendment that would have to approve bills for constitutionality before they could be considered on the floor? Are there constitutional amendments that are needed to rein in federal power? A Balanced Budget Amendment, for example, or an amendment requiring super-majorities to pass spending or tax bills? How about a constitutional amendment requiring that the budget of the United States be prepared every two years and that it be subject to popular approval at presidential or midterm elections?
